    The Man with the Coconuts ( Adapted story from Mabel Cook Cole,
    Philippine Folk Tales)

    One day, there was a man who had been in the forest to gather his
    coconuts. He loaded his horse heavily with them. On his way home, he
    met a boy and a girl whom he asked on how long it would take him to
    reach the house. ”If you go slowly," said the boy, looking at the load on the
    horse, "you will arrive very soon; but if you go fast, it will take you all day.“
    The man could not believe this strange speech, so, he hurried his horse.
    However, the coconuts fell off and he had to stop to pick them up. Then,
    he hurried his horse all the more to make up for lost time; still, the
    coconuts fell off again. Many times he did this, and it was night when he
    reached home.
    Cohesive devices
    Cohesive devices are like road signs.
    They keep the text running smoothly, making it clear which direction to
    follow and how different parts are linked.
    Some are used to create cohesion within paragraphs and some are used
    to create cohesion between paragraphs.

    Determiners and Pronouns

    Repetition
    Cohesive devices – Conjunctions
    Conjunctions can be used as cohesive devices.
    Conjunctions link clauses.
    The links create cohesion by joining clauses and explaining how they are joined.
    Conjunctions can give meaning to the links, to do with…

    time place cause condition contrast


    when where because if although
    while wherever so unless though
    since for even whereas
    as since if while
    before
    Cohesive devices – Conjunctions
    With conjunctions, a text has more cohesion.

    Whereas a typical school may have 30 children in Year 6 to choose


    from, Green Vale must select its team from across KS2 in order to
    have enough players.
    The conjunction creates cohesion by making one sentence. It shows that the first
    (subordinate) clause gives additional meaning to the second (main) clause.
    Cohesive devices ‐-­ Adverbials
    An adverbial modifies a verb or a clause.
    Adverbials can be …answering questions
    such as,
    firstly a word, In what order?
    a phrase,
    on initial inspection Where?
    or a
    clause,
    when playing other teams When?

    How?
    Cohesive devices ‐-­ Adverbials
    Adverbials can be used as cohesive devices
    For the last five years, this village school football team has come top of the
    Small Schools’ League.

    On initial inspection, Green Cale’s football pitch is unsuitable for practice.

    When?

    These adverbials make the ‘setting’ of the paragraphs clear, right from the start.
